Big businessman and little fisherman

Chapter 451 Shipwreck
On April 21th in the [-]st year of Dashang, the emperor personally marched.

At the beginning of June in the 21st year of the Great Shang Dynasty, the Western Army was defeated and paid tribute to the Great Shang Dynasty.

In mid-June of the 21st year of Dashang, the emperor drove back to Beijing.

Along the way, it was extremely hot, and as soon as the sun came out, the ground seemed to be on fire.Chariots and horses can only walk a certain distance in the early morning and dusk, and have to hide in the post station or in the woods for the rest of the time.

The emperor who was in charge of the imperial conquest was not in a hurry to return to the capital, but instead brought dozens of Habayashi guards all the way to the capital for sightseeing.

Originally a one-month journey, the emperor spent nearly two months on this journey.

On August 21th, the [-]st year of Dashang, the emperor boarded a ship in Tongzhou, and it is expected to return to the capital on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The big ship sailed smoothly and headed for the capital at the fastest speed.

At noon on August 21th in the 50st year of Dashang, when he was approaching the capital, the big ship on which the emperor was riding was attacked.The bottom of the boat was dug a big hole by the water bandits, and more than [-] Yubayashi guards who escorted them fought bloody battles, but they were finally lost, and the big boat sank on the sandbar in the middle of the river.

Except for the dozens of people on board who died in battle, the rest fell into the water with the emperor and died.

Habayashi Wei's deputy, Qianhu Fangjing, was washed to the shore after falling into the water, and was rescued by local fishermen.On the [-]th, Fang Jing hurried to the capital before the city gate was locked, and died of exhaustion after explaining the reason.

It has been two full days since the accident happened and the court received the news.

Not to mention the corpses, even the sinking ship has moved in the water.

Regardless of the objections of the courtiers, Chen Luxing took people to the sandbar in the middle of the river in the rain, and personally salvaged it by boat.After three days and three nights without sleep, he finally exhausted himself and was forcibly taken back by Zhen Guogong, who knocked him unconscious with his palm.

Dozens of people fell into the water, only a dozen dead bodies were picked up.In the past few days, the upper reaches of the Yangtze River have been flooded by rain, and more than 40 people, including the emperor, have lost their traces in the flood.

A country cannot live without a ruler for a day.

All the ministers searched for the emperor's body for more than ten days, but failed to find it, so they knelt down and begged the crown prince Chen Luxing to ascend the throne.

Chen Luxing resolutely refused, saying that the emperor was only missing, which did not prove that the emperor had died.He believes that the emperor will die and become auspicious, and will return soon.

The crown prince is unwilling to ascend the throne, and all the ministers ask again.

Three requests and three refusals, in the end the Queen Mother came out in person and talked with the prince all night, and the prince agreed with red eyes to act as the supervisor of the country temporarily.

For a period of one year, the emperor can no longer be found, and he will ascend the throne again.

When the coffin containing the emperor's clothes was transported to the capital, the empress Gongsun Wanying wept unceasingly in grief, and the empress died of illness half a year later.

In the 22nd year of Dashang, Prince Chen Luxing ascended the throne as emperor.

Chen Luxing discussed with the officials, and the posthumous title was proposed to be Jingtian Changyun, Wenwu, Ruizhe, Respectful, Thrifty, Loving, Filial, Filial, and Filial to Emperor Kangpingwen, and the temple name was Shang Taizong.

Emperor Wen was a posthumous posthumous posthumous title, which means that he has the talent of latitude and longitude, has a profound moral character and is diligent in learning and inquiring.

Shang Taizong is even more of a beautiful name for opening up territories.

The monarch who can enjoy the temple name can enjoy the offerings and sacrifices of generations to come.The monarchs who can get the temple title, in each dynasty before the Tang Dynasty, there were at most seven monarchs, and not every monarch can enjoy such qualifications.

Shang Taizong's temple name is well deserved.

As soon as Chen Luxing proposed, none of the ministers dared to object.

The Great Shang Dynasty was only established for 21 years, and the Great Shang Emperor reigned for more than ten years, comforting the people and governing the discipline.The whole country is strong and strong, and the country is peaceful and the people are safe.Those small subordinate countries that were defeated had almost half of the income of the Great Shang Dynasty every year, and this was all thanks to Taizong.

The coffins of the emperor and empress were sent to the imperial mausoleum in Dongyang County, and in the Renshou Palace, the empress dowager lit an ever-burning lamp.

The queen's death was caused by the queen mother.

When Lu Yange left, he had already made arrangements for the queen.

It's just that the queen mother couldn't bear the blood on Lu Yange's singer, and couldn't bear the day when Chen Luxing's brothers and sisters learned the truth and wanted to kill their aunt Lu Yange.The Empress Dowager simply removed the people sent by Lu Yange, and she did not act until the news of the emperor's death came.

Gongsun Wanying's death did not make anyone suspicious.Everyone thought that Queen Gongsun and the emperor were deeply in love, and the harps and zithers played harmoniously.Unable to accept the fact of the emperor's death, he fell ill and followed the emperor.

When Empress Gongsun died, Xiangye Gongsun fainted on the spot when he received the bad news, and died of phlegm.

The Queen died in the Gongsun family, and the Prime Minister also died. Gongsun Wanying's father, Gongsun Changsheng, was not a man with great ambitions.The following descendants also have mediocre IQs.

Gongsun Changsheng was granted the title of Marquis of Yong'an, and took a job. Even if the Gongsun family did not have outstanding sons and daughters, at least within three generations, as long as they don't act like monsters, they must be prosperous, rich and well-clothed.

The year the emperor disappeared, Chen Xiaohu who rushed back from Xirong searched for it for a year.Until Chen Luxing ascended the throne, Chen Xiaohu had to turn around. On the second day, he pleaded guilty at the court meeting and asked the new emperor to come down for the crime of dereliction of duty.

Convict Chen Xiaohu?
The ministers of the DPRK and China each held their own opinions, some said that Chen Xiaohu's escort was not good, Xi Rong had been defeated, Chen Xiaohu should not let the emperor return alone in order to clean up the battlefield.This is dereliction of duty and should be severely punished to comfort the spirit of the late emperor.

There are also those who have a good relationship with Chen Xiaohu and complain for Chen Xiaohu. General Chen is loyal to the country, and there is no credit but hard work.The emperor was going home alone, and he was killed by water bandits not far from the capital. How could it be General Chen's dereliction of duty?

Chen Luxing said nothing, just watched the civil and military ministers quarreling.

Tang Qi, Duke of the Township, came out and interceded for Chen Xiaohu: "Your Majesty, I believe that General Chen has done nothing wrong. If General Chen can't get over this hurdle, he feels that he has failed to protect the late emperor. I suggest that General Chen lead the three Thousands of soldiers will eradicate the canal water bandits and avenge the late emperor."

The blushing and thick-necked ministers immediately agreed, this is fine, no matter whether General Chen has meritorious deeds or dereliction of duty, the water bandits will definitely be suppressed.

Not only the water bandits near the canal should be exterminated, but also the mountains and rivers near the Great Shang Dynasty should be exterminated as long as there are bandits.Rather than allowing them to harm one side.

Because Taizu Chen Quan was born reckless, before he died, he said before that those gangsters who had nowhere to go, only charged tolls, and did not kill people to intercept goods, let them go if they could.It's not because you can't survive, who wants to be a bandit.

The previous dynasty was corrupt and incompetent, the people were in dire straits, and bandits and water bandits were rampant.Only then did Chen Quan's uprising and the Great Shang Dynasty be established.

During the years of the Great Shang Dynasty, the weather was favorable, the country was peaceful and the people were safe, and there were not many bandits. Who would want to go to the mountains and rivers to become a bandit when they were full and warm.

However, there are always people who have evil intentions and think about getting something for nothing.

After the death of the first emperor, Chen Xiaohu led three thousand elite guards to suppress the bandits for three years. After wiping out all the big and small bandits in the Great Shang Dynasty, he built a large ship and went to sea, which was bound to wipe out all the bandits around the Great Shang Dynasty.
